Fuse GlusterFS

From Linux-VServer

GlusterFS is a userspace filesystem which can create network mirrors/stripes etc. While I have not fully investigated all the functionality of GlusterFS, this article will get you started fast and fill in the blanks. Doing this process taught me a little something about Linux VServer and its kernel interactions as well. This process is very short in terms of compile but the steps were spread out all over the place.

Create fuse group and ensure proper permissions

Compile fuse WITHOUT kernel module

This is trick two. Being that the guest cant load a kernel module it can not install one either. This is why I am guessing yum list fuse will not list any packages inside the guest. Also I had trouble with the RPM build technique inside the guest, this time i elected to use the ./configure method
